and markings. The plants are vigorous in gi'owtli 

 and branching in habit, bearing flower bnds in 

 clusters along the spikes at the axils of the leaves 

 and these develop and expand in succession ; thus 

 keeping up a continuous bloom from July until 

 frost. This ever-blooming character and the 

 superb flowers of such diversified form and color, 

 render it one of the most important acquisitions 

 of recent times. Everyone possessing even the 

 smallest garden spot should plant a few of them; 

 nothing will give greater satisfaction. Each, 15c. ; 

 doz., $1.50; 100, $10.00.

 color and perfection of form. Its tall, large 

 heavy spikes of large, very double flowers of both 

 delicate and rich colors are most effective and 

 beautiful. Each, \2c. ; doz., $1.25; 100, $8.00.

 style and make-up of flowers from the other class.

 red. Each, 12c.; doz., $1.25; 100, $8.00.

PRIMLLA OBCOMCA. 



One of the finest of the Primulas for Pot cult- 

 ure and flourishes admirably in the open border 

 during the summer. It is at all times a most pro- 

 fuse bloomer. Its ch aiming flowers are borne on 

 stiff stems and well jibove the foliage and are of 

 varied shades of pin]- a.ad white.

In order to have this 

 beautiful vine bloom 

 well, allow the roots 

 to become pot-bound. 

 This causes the plant 

 to bloom profusely 

 when it is quite small. 

 Those who have seen 

 it thus bloomed will. 

 I am sure, agree with 

 me that there is not a 

 prettier vme for win- 

 dow or pot culture. 

 Beyond the one point 

 given above it thrives 

 for all with small care ; 

 the lovely wreathes 

 and garlands of bril- 

 liant scarlet and 

 orange colored flow- 

 ers, interspersed with 

 clean, bright, oblong 

 foliage, presents a 

 striking contrast. Each, 12c. 



PANSIES, 



New Giant Madame Ferret. These 

 Pansies are a wonder. In .size and intense color 

 of bloom they surpass all others and flower con- 

 stantly and profusely. The plants are full and 

 spreading, holding up the blooms well above the 

 foliage. The flowers are simply immense in size, 

 3 to 33^ inches in diameter, and in color they 

 range through all the shades of red. from pink to 

 deep purple, with an intermediate bright red 

 edged with white. The Gold Medal was award- 

 ed these pansies at the Pan-American Exposition.

 clumps of foliage crowded with dozens of flower 

 spikes at one time. The flowers are very dainty 

 and graceful, of a beautiful rose color with center 

 of pale yellow, carried on erect but delicate 

 stems. When cut they remain fresh and in good
